Re: [guide-user] Does anyone know how to introduce the guide star catalog URAT1 in 9.0?

Hello Bill;

Thank you for your quick help and that data will try to get off this catalog URAT1 which is great.
By the way you comment that the guide 9.0 is already prepared for in the current update URAT1;
http://www.projectpluto.com/new.htm
But not if you've read in previous posts that this upgrade even gives errors.
I was under the change of the language and all that but now soon to put this update, when you click on the direct link the program gives an error and can not open guide 9.0 and to work perfectly you have to put the previous update.
Of all the ways I will try again to have it happen for sure.
Thanks Bill programmer but I do not understand anything.

Greetings.

Hola Bill;

Gracias por tu ayuda rapida y con esos datos intentare bajarme ese catalogo urat1 que es muy grande.
Por cierto comentas que el guide 9.0 ya esta preparado para el urat1 en la actual actualizacion;
http://www.projectpluto.com/new.htm
Pero no se si has leido en mensajes anteriores que esa actualizacion aun da errores.
Se arreglo lo del cambio del idioma y todo eso pero ahora al poco de meter esa actualizacion, al pulsar sobre el enlace directo del programa da un error y no se puede abrir guide 9.0 y para que funcione perfectamente hay que meter la anterior actualizacion.
De todas las maneras lo intentare otra vez haber que sucede para estar seguro.
Gracias Bill pero yo de programador no entiendo nada de nada.

Saludos.

Thanks for mentioning this. It caused me to realize that I never _did_
document how to do that.

To get URAT1 to display, you need the most recent update from

http://www.projectpluto.com/new.htm

(which I realize you already have). After that, all you have to is to either
put the URAT1 files into the Guide folder, or tell Guide where you've put URAT1.
The way to do that (much as with UCAC) is to edit 'guide.dat' and enter a line
such as

URAT1_PATH=d:\urat1

Incidentally, for those wondering what URAT1 is: it is a recently-released
follow-up star catalog to UCAC4. Its advantages over UCAC4 are that it gives
more recent data (from 2012.3 to 2014.6), so that errors due to proper motion
are less, and it goes a good bit fainter than UCAC did. It has about 228
million objects in it, most of which are stars. A "readme" file is at

http://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/viz-bin/Cat?I/329

One rather large down side is that it covers only the northern hemisphere,
with some coverage down to declination -24.8. The telescope was set up at
Flagstaff, Arizona, and either has been moved or will be moved to Chile to
get the other half of the sky.

The actual data files are here (note that the total size is about 18.2 GBytes) :

ftp://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/pub/cats/I/329/URAT1/v12/

Incidentally, if you're a programmer with a desire to access the data,
this may be of use to you :
